        Background: Obesity and overweight are among the most common complications among high school students, which can be associated with cardiovascular diseases. Modifying the lifestyle through sports activities and herbal medicines is one of the solutions to combat this problem. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an 8-week cinnamon consumption with and without high-intensity interval training on blood lipid profiles in high school-aged overweight girls.Methods: In this semi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test design, 36 overweight women aged 15-18 years were randomly assigned to one of the 3 groups: intense interval training (n=12), cinnamon supplementation (n=12) and intense interval training+cinnamon (n=12). The intense interval training program was conducted three times a week for 8 weeks in the two intervention groups. Each session, lasting 30-35 minutes, involved high-intensity exercises at 90-95% of peak oxygen consumption. Diet groups received cinnamon supplements at the rate of 6 grams/day for a period of 8 weeks. Body measurements (weight, body mass index) and serum levels of blood fats (cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein) were measured before and after the study. The data were analyzed using the dependent t-test and analysis of covariance at a level less than 0.05.Results: After 8 weeks of intervention, a significant decrease in body weight and body mass index and a significant increase in HDL cholesterol were observed in the intense interval training and intense interval training + cinnamon groups compared to the cinnamon alone group (p≤0.05). However, Bonferroni's follow-up test did not show significant differences in cholesterol, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein levels between the groups (p≥0.05).Conclusion: High-intensity intermittent exercise with cinnamon consumption can reduce body composition and some blood lipids more effectively than cinnamon supplementation in overweight high school girls.

        Background: This study studied the interactive effect of 12 weeks of aerobic training and the intake of multivitamin-mineral supplementation on the indicators of male pulmonary function in the exposure of urban polluted air.Method: 46 subjects, with an average age of 25 ± 1.2, took part voluntarily and were completely satisfied in this quasi-experimental study. They were randomly assigned to 4 groups: supplement and exercise (11 subjects), exercise (N = 11), supplement (N = 12), and control (N = 12). This Aerobic exercise was carried out with the same and increasing practice protocol for the first and second groups (including the first week of 12 minutes running with 60% heart rate up to the 12th week, progressively 30 minutes running with 85% heart rate reserve) and with supplementation of multivitamin - minerals which were taken as one capsule each day for the first and third groups of the research. In addition, the variables, including FEV1, FVC, FVC/FEV1, PEF, and FEF50 were measured once before and after 12 weeks using a spirometry device connected to the computer, and Respiratory symptoms were measured by the Respiratory Standard Questionnaire.Results: After 12 weeks of intervention, there was a significant increase in the level of functional parameters of the lung in the combined and supplementary groups and a significant decrease in the exercise group compared with the before the time of the study (p<0.05). The results showed a significant difference between the groups in the measured variables, which was insignificant between the combined group and the exercise.Conclusion: The study results showed that 12 weeks of aerobic exercise and consumption of multivitamin-mineral supplementation leads to a significant increase in the levels of male pulmonary function in urban polluted air. Therefore, using the same amount of vitamins and necessary minerals is recommended to improve pulmonary function, and in case of shortage, use antioxidant supplements, such as the multivitamin-mineral supplement.

        Introduction: The main purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of eight weeks of Pilates exercises with and without vitamin D supplementation on body composition and osteoporosis in overweight postmenopausal women. Methodology: The statistical population of this study included postmenopausal women with an age range (50-70 years) and a high body mass index (25 to 29 kg/m2), with 40 women in three experimental groups and one group were controlled. The first group of 10 people only did Pilates, the second group of 10 people only took vitamin D supplements, the third group of 10 people did Pilates with the supplement and the last group was considered as the control group. The subjects participated in the Pilates exercise program, which included 8 weeks of three sessions of one hour per week, and took vitamin D supplements according to the schedule. Finally, the subjects' body mass index, vitamin D level, and osteoporosis level were determined before and after the activity. To check the results, the statistical method of covariance test was used at the significance level of P≤0.05. Results: Based on the obtained results, Pilates exercises along with vitamin D supplementation had an effect on the body composition of overweight postmenopausal women and reduced the body mass index of women (P≤0.05)). Pilates exercises combined with vitamin D supplementation had an effect on osteoporosis in overweight postmenopausal women and the rate of osteoporosis in the subjects was reduced (P≤0.05). However, supplement consumption and Pilates exercise alone did not affect the amount of body mass index and osteoporosis (P≤0.05). Conclusion: According to the results obtained from this research, it is possible to suggest Pilates exercises along with vitamin D supplementation to overweight postmenopausal women to improve body composition and prevent osteoporosis. The main goal of osteoporosis treatment is to prevent fractures. Manuscript profile
